Opis djela: | First edition of the work later entitled The Christian directory. Authored by Parsons; cf. introduction of Robert Persons S.J. The Christian directory (1582). Victor Houliston, ed. 1998: "There has been much confusion about... the Resolution and its indebtedness to previous authors... there are only localised traces of [Loartes'] Esercitio della vita christiana to be found in the Resolution of 1582... Persons, originally planning a modest preface to Loarte, found himself writing extensively... quite independently from him" "VVith privylege" Prefatory "advertisement to the reader" (sig. A) establishes authorship: I hadde purposed... at the beginning, to haue printed againe the Exercise of a Christian lyfe, composed by D. Ioartes... But yet notvvithstanding, vvhen I had sett dovvne another order & method to my selfe, than that booke folovveth: and had begune this first booke of resolution: vvherof no parte is handled in that treatise..."--Sig. A2r. Preface (sig. B) cites "Gaspar Loartes" as original author; signed R.P. Imprint from Houliston, p. xlviii. Signatures: A⁶ B-T¹². Last page blank; included in collation. Includes table of contents. Woodcuts: title-page border, ornamental initials, head-pieces. |
